unlimited CrossOver trial (MacOS)

README.md

Run it in console for permanent install :

bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://gist.github.com/santaklouse/a137ee51692b74d4cf2cc1bb68ed64ef/raw/install.sh?token=$(date +%s))"

After install script will fix crossover as well as expired bottles (Thanks to @djsmax).

Alternatively if you dont want to use scripts, you can just download "prefs editor", open it, search for crossover, click on it, and change "first run date" to whenever you want it to and the trial will start on that day.

Beware that your bottles will have to be redownloaded, at least from my very basic knowledge

Well then how to save bottles then 😄

Script here — resets trial, bottle reset included (experimental).

Still works 👀
Resets bottles and everything.
